The japanese 5S system
5S is a Japanese method, developed by Toyota to create order and method at the workplace.
The 5 S's can be interpreted as:
- Sort the tools and materials that are used at the workplace. Separate what is necessary from what is not.
- Set in order that, which is necessary and easily accessible. Give it a suitable place and remove everything else.
- Shine regularly, some cleaning each day, major cleaning each week.
- Standardize the daily routines. Use to do lists for daily upkeep of the machinery and premises.
- Sustain the order. Improve the to-do lists continuously.
The T-plastic pocket has a green heading/work done/and a red heading/work not done/.
Example of work organisation: You can set the cards week-wise for one or two years ahead.
